OT:: Multiple PHP versions
by TE Dukes 22 Aug '22

22 Aug '22

Hello, Been trying to get multiple versions of PHP on a CentOS 7 machine, off and on for the past couple months. I have followed 5 or 6 different howtos but none work. They are very similar and they seems to be done on a fresh install as most do an apache install is the steps. I setup two virtualhosts one for PHP5.6 and one for PHP 7.4. When I create a file with phpinfo, it reports back 5.6.xxx on both sites. So, I'm wondering if I need to remove the existing PHP version that is included with CentOS? Any suggestions or a better way to do this? TIA

Re: [CentOS] possible issue with CS8 kernel-4.18.0-358.el8.x86_64

I'd like to echo this. `kscreenlocker_greet` doesn't show a password prompt and can't be unlocked, `loginctl unlock-session` just doesn't work, sddm just stops at a black screen and never displays the login prompt. Backed up to 348 and everything works fine. Turing Eret

Assitance with perl
by H 03 Feb '22

03 Feb '22

I am writing a long bash script under CentOS 7 where perl is used for manipulating some external files. So far I am using perl one-liners to do so but ran into a problem when I need to append text to an external file. Here is a simplified example in the bash script where txt is a bash variable which I built containing a longish text with multiple newlines: txt="a b$'\n'cd ef$'\n'g h$'\n'ij kl" A simplified perl one-liner to append the text in the variable above to some file in the bash script would be: perl -pe 'eof && do{print $_'"${txt}"'; exit}' someexternalfile.txt This works when fine when $txt does /not/ contain any spaces but falls apart when it does. I would like to keep the above structure, ie using bash variables to build text strings and one-liners to do the text manipulation. Hopefully there is a "simple" solution to do this, I have tried many variations and failed miserably... Note that I also want to use a similar pattern to do substitutions in external files, I would thus like to use the same code pattern. Thanks.

repoview alternative
by Leon Fauster 28 Jan '22

28 Jan '22

With the move of yum/dnf forward to python3, tools like repoview for building browsable repos do not work anymore. Any ideas of other tools for that? Do not need to be streams/modules aware ... https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/repoview https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=3731 -- Leon

Hi All, I was looking for an update to polkit in CentOS 7 to fix CVE-2021-4034, but I don't see one yet. I'm assuming it's coming soon-ish. Is there any word on roughly when that will be? Here's the RHEL 7 advisory: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2022:0274 -- Ranbir
